The Eggs are Apple Snails in the making.

Thanks BD. Future food source for the Limpkins.

No Limpkins up here but the Purple Gallinules eat them, too.

Good to know. I just remember being at the Circle B Bar Reserve and seeing piles of shells. When I asked about them, I was told they were Apple Snail shells that the Limpkins had left behind.

If you ever watched any of the old Tarzan movies, the jungle sounds you heard were Limpkins for the most part with that high pitched scream the make. Most of the other sounds were the elephants bugling and Snowy Egrets in the rookery.
